This Is A New Release Of The Original 1712 Edition.

1712. It must be a very unpleasing reflection to anyone who has a just and critical taste of the writings of the ancients to consider how many noble and useful works have been swallowed up in the ocean of time. Of what important value several of them were is to be collected from the character which contemporary authors and others have given to them, a circumstance that serves only to aggravate our pain for their loss. Of all the labors which have suffered or totally perished in this wreck, there are few deserving of more regret than those various tracts of Longinus. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to read. Written in Old English.
